The reprimand for smoking cannabis at Eton did not stop Cameron succeeding academically, and in 1985 he went to Brasenose College, Oxford, where his good looks [huh?] and unforced charm meant he was rarely short of female attention.

He would go to old-fashioned sherry parties to meet girls and also went to the popular Playpen nightclub. There Cameron would set to work on the opposite sex for what he would call, a little crudely perhaps, an evening's 'wooding'. Purely as a precaution, he once felt the need to visit a sexual diseases clinic but not, as has been suggested, for an HIV test.

Here's one Mail Reader's take:

She's foul-mouthed and he's dabbled in drugs! I suppose they're a perfect couple for modern 21st century gutter-speak Britain, but it's a bit scary when you think that they could soon be in number ten!

JON SOPEL: Just looking back at things you were saying, just before you came into Westminster in 2000: "The Blair government continues to be obsessed with their fringe agenda, including deeply unpopular moves like repealing Section 28 and allowing the promotion of homosexuality in schools". You say it's a fringe agenda, and now you're trying to tell me it's central ... (overlaps)

DAVID CAMERON: Well I think it's absolutely essential that the Conservative Party reflects the country that it aspires to govern, and that's why we need to have candidates from the ethnic minority communities, more women candidates, we've got to do better in the North and in our cities, and that is absolutely vital.

BOTH TOGETHER

JON SOPEL: This from the Witney Gazette: "Blair has moved heaven and earth to allow the promotion of homosexuality in schools". Did he? [The whole quote was: "The Blair government continues to be obsessed with their ‘fringe’ agenda, including deeply unpopular moves like repealing Section 28 and allowing the promotion of homosexuality in schools.”]

DAVID CAMERON: Well that was the whole argument about Section 28.

JON SOPEL: Well did he? Did he? Was he shifting heaven and earth to allow the promotion of homosexuality in schools or might you look back at that quote and think oh, maybe that's a bit ...

DAVID CAMERON: (overlaps) I think, I think that Section 28, I'm glad that it's gone. I think that actually, it was an issue where clearly gay people felt that it was discriminatory against them.

And one can have lots of arguments about, should local authorities be telling, or the government be telling what, schools what should be taught in terms of sex education.

I think that's a fair argument. But at the end of the day, one section of our community did feel discriminated against by Section 28, and so I'm glad on that basis that it's gone.
